Government Inquiry Questions Significantly Increased Death Rates in Vaccinated vs Unvaccinated Canadians

Thousands of ‘undetermined cause’ of deaths in the statistics!

History is repeating itself. This is exactly the method governments used for decades to hide infant deaths after vaccines, by officially labelling them as SIDS, AKA ‘undetermined’ cause of death.  There is no mention in the data that these people were jabbed with an experimental, warp-speed produced vaccine only hours or days before their sudden deaths.  The data also shows that the higher number of times that people were jabbed, the more likely they were to die compared to the unvaccinated population.

The Health Canada Inquiry Vax v Unvax Deaths – September 2024 was presented by Saskatchewan MP Cathay Wagantall who was removed from the grounds of Parliament in 2022 for refusing to present her COVID-19 vaccination status.

HOUSE OF COMMONS
SEPTEMBER 16, 2024

INQUIRY OF MINISTRY QUESTION: 

With regard to Statistics Canada’s (StatCan) released data regarding “provisional deaths and excess mortality in Canada” which reported “significant excess mortality starting in January 2022” especially “among individuals younger than 45” and the Privy Council Office’s (PCO) use of “Winning Communication Strategies” to “not shake public confidence” (ATIP, May 2021):

(a) why did StatCan wait until September 2022 to publish excess mortality data amongst young Canadians when the data was available around March or April 2022;

(b) who signed off on the data in (a);

(c) what steps were taken to investigate the underlying reasons for this unusual finding of excess deaths in young persons;

(d) who or what agency or entity informed the Office of the Prime Minister and the Cabinet about this finding;

(e) how and when were these statistics communicated to provincial and territorial health ministers, regulatory health care colleges, chief medical officers and coroner’s offices, in order to provide Canadians with updated data to facilitate informed consent;

(f) which officials at which agency or entity hosted press releases regarding this unusual rise in deaths among those Canadians under the age of 45 years;

(g) as per the Public Health Agency of Canada’s ‘Cases Following Vaccination’ reports from June 10, 2022 to September 23, 2022, what was the number of “COVID-19 Cases Deceased” for each week as of the week which ended on June 12, 2022 until the week which ended on August 28, 2022, broken down by the vaccine status of the individual, including those having received (i) no dose, (ii) a single vaccine dose, (iii) the primary program of two doses, (iv) one additional dose, (v) two additional doses;

(h) according to the numbers in (f), which group had the largest number of “Cases deceased” each week;

(i) specifically with respect to the unvaccinated group and the two additional doses group, during those weeks, which of these two groups demonstrated fewer COVID-19 outbreaks;

(j) were there any press releases communicating the findings in (i) to the public;

(k) what are the details of the memo drafted by the PCO in May 2021, that instructed recipients to skew statistics to minimize the impact of vaccine-related deaths or injuries, including (i) which agencies or entities and which specific officials received this memo, (ii) how did the agencies or entities carry out the PCO’s instructions vis-a-vis statistical skewing, (iii) who at each agency or entity signed off on the report of the data; and

(l) why is there a discrepancy between the data that was released on the StatCan website for “other ill-defined and unspecified causes of mortality” from 2020 to 2022, a reported 16,043 deaths, and the value provided in the government response to Order Paper Question Q-1115, of 55,975 deaths for the same year and same category?

REPLY: Public Health Agency of Canada
Part (g), (h), (i) and (j):
(g) Between June 10 and August 28, 2022, the reporting of vaccination status categories were updated on the COVID-19 epidemiology update webpage to reflect updated terminology and relevant vaccination statuses at the time. As such, deaths by vaccination status categories are not directly comparable when definitions changed, resulting in gaps of data for the weeks of June 28 to July 4 and July 19-24. The following data was grouped according to vaccination status categories as presented on the COVID-19 epidemiology update webpage.

Based on “Cases following vaccination” reports on the COVID-19 epidemiology update web page from June 10 to August 28, 2022, weekly COVID-19 deaths were as follows:

Between June 13-27, 2022, the average number of weekly deaths reported was 23.3 among unvaccinated cases, 1 among not yet protected cases, 8.3 among partially vaccinated cases, 73.3 among fully vaccinated cases, and 144 among fully vaccinated cases with an additional dose.

Between July 4-18, 2022, the average number of weekly deaths reported was 13 among unvaccinated cases, 23.5 among fully vaccinated cases, 63 among fully vaccinated cases with one additional dose, and 20 among fully vaccinated with two or more additional doses.

Between July 25 – August 29, 2022, the average number of weekly deaths reported was 28.7 among unvaccinated cases, 7 among cases with primary series completed, 109.3 among cases with primary series completed and one additional dose, 46.3 among cases with primary series completed and two or more additional doses.

(h) Across all weeks in the time period of interest, the number of deaths were highest among those with a primary series and 1 additional dose.
For parts (g) and (h) please interpret the numbers provided with the following considerations and data caveats: Please note that these are crude numbers and do not account for the number of people in each vaccination status category. During the timeframe of interest, those with a primary series and 1 additional dose were the largest vaccine status group in the Canadian population (approximately 50% of the Canadian population and increasing). As such, although the crude number of deaths are highest among this group, the rate of deaths among those with a primary series and 1 additional dose are low in comparison to those who are unvaccinated. (Those unvaccinated were 8 times more likely to die than those with a completed primary vaccine series and 1 or more additional doses. From the August 26, 2022 COVID-19 epidemiology update web page.)

Furthermore, case counts are likely to over-represent people at risk of severe disease, because they have been prioritized for testing. These same people were also prioritized for COVID-19 boosters. This meant that the people being tested were more likely than the general population to 1) have received boosters, and 2) to get severe illness. This leads to a data bias which could cause people to mistakenly conclude that more vaccines lead to severe disease. As they are a larger group of people, there will naturally be more cases among vaccinated people than among unvaccinated people. However, despite their higher case counts, vaccinated people are less likely to get very sick or die than those unvaccinated for COVID-19.

Parts (i) and (j) PHAC does not collect data on outbreaks specific to vaccination status. As a result, this is not reported to the public, nor were there press releases.

REPLY: Public Health Agency of Canada

Part a) Statistics Canada did not wait until September 2022 to publish excess mortality data among young Canadians. Excess mortality among those under the age of 45 was observed at different times throughout the pandemic, a fact that was acknowledged and explored in the April 2022 release, as well as in many of Statistics Canada’s earlier monthly analyses of excess mortality. For the March and April 2022 releases, insufficient data had been received from most provinces and territories to comment on excess mortality at a national level beyond November 2021. Among those jurisdictions for which data were available, excess mortality was observed in some provinces in January 2022. The May 2022 release did recognize that excess mortality was increasingly impacting younger Canadians in early 2022, an observation that was repeated in the June, July, and August releases.

In its commitment to keep Canadians informed on the direct and indirect consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, Statistics Canada began, in May of 2020, publishing monthly provisional data on excess mortality in Canada. These releases were announced in The Daily, Statistics Canada’s official release bulletin, and accompanied by an analysis by region, sex and/or age group to provide some insight as to what groups were most impacted by the pandemic. The data are provisional as they are not based on all deaths that occurred during the reference period, owing to reporting delays. Canada’s national vital statistics system is a complex and decentralized system, based on collaboration between provincial and territorial vital statistics registrars and Statistics Canada. The Vital Statistics Registry in each province and territory registers all deaths occurring in their jurisdiction and reports the information to Statistics Canada. Statistics Canada’s capacity to provide useful and timely information is dependent on when the information is reported by the provinces and territories. The numbers of excess deaths discussed in the monthly releases refer to provisional estimates; these estimates are updated with revised figures as more data are reported by the provincial and territorial registries.

Part b) In accordance with Statistics Canada’s Policy on Official Release, the Chief Statistician is responsible for performing the final step of the institutional review for all content proposed for publication in any of Statistics Canada’s official release vehicles. Additional information on the roles and responsibilities with respect to the approval process are described in Section 5 of the Policy.

Part c) In the absence of timely data on the causes of death through the civil registration process, data sources external to Statistics Canada were considered to provide context to the increased mortality observed in those under the age of 45. The offices of the provincial and territorial chief coroners and chief medical examiners in some jurisdictions—notably Alberta and British Columbia—were publicly reporting an increase in the number of overdose deaths during the pandemic, particularly among younger Canadians. Furthermore, our own data on COVID-19 deaths, corroborated by those collected by the Public Health Agency of Canada, showed that very few deaths among Canadians aged 0 to 44 years were attributed directly to the disease. The data collected and published by the Canadian Adverse Events Following Immunization Surveillance System (CAEFISS) were also consulted: according to its most recent data, which include adverse events having occurred on or before January 5, 2024, deaths were consistent with causal association to immunization.

Deaths investigated by coroners or medical examiners, such as homicides, suicides, and accidental death, including drug overdoses, often require lengthy investigations, which means it takes longer for these causes of death to be reported to Statistics Canada. While the monthly releases include provisional death counts by the cause of death, these data represent an underestimation of the total number of deaths and the number of deaths attributable to selected causes of death during the reporting period. When the cause of death information is delayed from the provinces and territories and/or by means of an investigation by a coroner or medical examiner, challenges arise in attributing decreases and increases in mortality to a particular cause or causes. Statistics Canada publishes annually more comprehensive data on the causes of death, usually in November or December of the following year, the most recent having occurred on November 27, 2023, with the release of data on deaths and the causes of death for the 2022 reference year. These figures are also subject to annual revision as new and updated information on the causes of death is made available to Statistics Canada.

Part e) Statistics Canada does not communicate directly these statistics to provincial and territorial health ministers, regulatory health care colleges, chief medical officers and coroner’s offices. The information is publicly available on the Statistics Canada website.

Part l) The 55,975 deaths attributed to Ill-defined and unspecified causes of mortality (for reference year 2022) in the statistics provided in the response to Order Paper Question Q-1115 are based on the provisional data released on December 8, 2022; 16,043 is the number of deaths that occurred in 2022 and for which the underlying cause of death remained undetermined or unknown in the comprehensive data on the causes of death for 2022, released on November 27, 2023. The cause of death category Ill-defined and unspecified causes of mortality is used when the leading underlying cause of death is undetermined or unknown. Deaths are assigned to this category when: the investigation failed to conclusively establish a specific cause of death—i.e., the medical certificate of cause of death indicates ‘undetermined’, or the causes of death indicated on medical certificate of cause of death lack detail, for example, cardiac arrest—or, the death is pending investigation by a coroner or medical examiner (e.g., deaths from accidents, suicides, and homicides). Over time, as the causes of death become known and are reported to Statistics Canada, deaths in this category are recategorized accordingly and the number of deaths attributed to Ill-defined and unspecified causes of mortality decreases.

Should you have additional questions or require further assistance, I invite you to communicate with the Strategic Engagement group in the Health Statistics Branch at [email protected].

Reply Privy Council Office (PCO):

(d) PCO informed the Prime Minister of the findings regarding Statistics Canada’s data on “provisional deaths and excess mortality in Canada” through Weekly Information Notes.

(k) PCO does not have any information regarding the alleged May 2021 memo.
